Hi Nagesh, to start with , go ahead and get HEAD FIRST EJB by Kathy and bert. this book is a must. Things are explained very well in this book. U can refer to EJB specs after reading this book. I found that way easy. Initially w/o reading this book when i tried to read specs, it was hard to digest. Now i find it easy! One more good book to start with is 'Mastering EJB 2'. If u do not have ejb experiance, this book explains concepts with examples. after the initial preparartion, get the mock exam simulator. either soft-BCD or EJBPlus. I have heard that softBCD questions are more close to exam. And last but not the least, stick to this forum, its a gr8 place to learn lots of things! Regards, Rashmi

Thank you very much Rashmi for the valuable approach. Can you please clarify what is soft BCD / BCDPlus.... I do have EJB experience. May I know how many weeks of dedicated prep needed for this exam? Thanks again.
